### Improved
- Adjust [election timeout on server restart](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/9415) to reduce [disruptive rejoining servers](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/9333).
- Previously, etcd fast-forwards election ticks on server start, with only one tick left for leader election. This is to speed up start phase, without having to wait until all election ticks elapse. Advancing election ticks is useful for cross datacenter deployments with larger election timeouts. However, it was affecting cluster availability if the last tick elapses before leader contacts the restarted node.
- Now, when etcd restarts, it adjusts election ticks with more than one tick left, thus more time for leader to prevent disruptive restart.

### Dependency
- Upgrade [`github.com/ugorji/go/codec`](https://github.com/ugorji/go) to [**`ugorji/go@9c7f9b7`**](https://github.com/ugorji/go/commit/9c7f9b7a2bc3a520f7c7b30b34b7f85f47fe27b6), and [regenerate v2 `client`](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/6945).
### Security, Authentication
See [security doc](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/blob/master/Documentation/op-guide/security.md) for more details.
- SRV records (e.g., infra1.example.com) must match the discovery domain (i.e., example.com) if no custom certificate authority is given.
-`TLSConfig.ServerName` is ignored with user-provided certificates for backwards compatibility; to be deprecated.
- For example, `etcd --discovery-srv=example.com` will only authenticate peers/clients when the provided certs have root domain `example.com` as an entry in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field.
- v3.0 and v3.1 with `--auto-compaction-retention=10` run periodic compaction on v3 key-value store for every 10-hour.
- Compactor only supports periodic compaction.
- Compactor records latest revisions every 5-minute, until it reaches the first compaction period (e.g. 10-hour).
- In order to retain key-value history of last compaction period, it uses the last revision that was fetched before compaction period, from the revision records that were collected every 5-minute.
- When `--auto-compaction-retention=10`, compactor uses revision 100 for compact revision where revision 100 is the latest revision fetched from 10 hours ago.
- If compaction succeeds or requested revision has already been compacted, it resets period timer and starts over with new historical revision records (e.g. restart revision collect and compact for the next 10-hour period).
